I second the idea of standardizing *where* JNI libraries go and
providing support (eg. wrappers) so JVM owners can add that location to
paths.  Where exactly JNI libraries should go is still open to debate
IMHO.  

If you argue that JNI libraries are 'plugins' then using /usr/lib/jni
(or similar) seems ok - as per Policy.  

Personally, I feel they're 'just libraries' and should be treated as
such, going into /usr/lib.  I don't feel particularly strongly about
this stance and am fine with /usr/lib/jni if that's what we choose.

To me the key is that we agree on a single place to put JNI libraries.
